The Teacher's desire for his students is that they not only listen, but respond with all their "body, mind, soul and strength.

The aim of Lifestyle Fitting Heaven is a thorough survey of each subject introduced in the Teaching on the Mount with the intent for a deeper understanding of Jesus' clear-cut demand of how a Christian life should be conducted. Although exceedingly profound, His precepts are astoundingly comprehensible and accessible because they are not designed for "the wise and learned" but for the "little children," who are innocent in heart and eager to embrace and comply with them.
